A wonderful start into concert life with Blind Guardian anyway!! My very first one was at age 16 with Fury In The Slaughterhouse in my home town. My second then was Heavy Metal Christmas Meeting in Hannover - with Blind Guardian of course! But still needed someone to drive me there then!

Sorry for the huge size of the pics... Made them smaller now. Took me a moment to access a "real" computer to do so ;-) Arthur - sorry, I didn't recognise you?! Saw your answer too late anyway, as I happened to be on the road for 5 1/2 hrs :evil: Bad idea to get in your car friday afternoon when vac...

Blind Guardian presented themselves on friday night well rested and in a brilliant mood. I wonder where they gather their energy - I didn't have enough for the whole concert! :lol: It was a wonderful night and I am happy I had the chance to be there. The setlist looked as followed: http://www.yetipr...

Well... How about September 21st/22nd - just out of the blue?

What a wonderful idea!!!! But well... since I'm a single mother of a two year old little boy, stucked all alone somewhere in the very south of germany, it turns out to be a little difficult to me joining... Unless you all want to come to my place! ;-) I'd really love to come, but since my little one...

The funny thing was that they did not even sell that shirt with the Tilburg date on it at the Tilburg show, only on EMP (< I'm not sure about this, correct me if I'm wrong). Also at the show they weren't T-shirts in the size S and on EMP they've got the same T-shirts from the show but also in size ...

Maybe some of you have seen the German Echo Award broadcasting? Well, I tried to, but to be honest: I didn't. But what for do we have Internet? ;-) ARD (broadcasting station) has it all online: http://www.ardmediathek.de/ard/servlet/content/3517136?documentId=6797798 The award, category "Rock/Altern...
